Andy and Lyndsay are wonderful dog trainers and just wonderful people. They truly love animals and will take care of your fur baby. They are knowledgeable and kind and pay close attention to your dogs.I have two dogs and they have both been to training here. My dogs are trained and I feel like they lead happier lives because I can do so much more with them since they are trained well. Highly recommended Priory K-9!

Andy and Lindsey are great trainers. While I don't have a dog there currently, my family is having a dog being trained in obedience and possible protection training. Besides their easy going nature and very knowledgeable advice, Andy said, "I don't want to train just plain aggressive protection dogs. I want to train good family dogs that will not only protect your family, but be a part of it." They really care about the dogs they train, and the end result can't be denied. I would HIGHLY recommend this business for dog training, in whatever capacity.

We highly recommend Priory K-9. Andrew and Lindsey are amazing. They are incredible trainers and truly love your animal like their own. Landry was a problem child before going to their board and train program. As I sit writing this review, she is in a “stay” position and still follows all commands. We were on the brink of having to rehome because she was too hyper and out of control with our young children. Priory gave us the tools to set boundaries for Landry and us humans to make it a peaceful and happy living environment. I’m also so happy to be able to walk her without feeling like my arm is going to be ripped out of it’s socket. She is a different dog and we are so pleased. Training is a team effort and you are given the tools to keep training fresh at home.Thank you, Priory.Photo: One of our major issues was meal time or when our children were having a snack, and Landry would jump up and take their food. We don’t even have to use the “stay” command anymore. She knows that if we reach for a treat and we are eating that it is time for her to go straight to her place and stays throughout our meal. She is hard to see, but she is lying down by the couch on her mat.

They are great! We have 2 dogs that were completely untrained. They stayed with them for the 3 week training and came home as different dogs! It has been amazing and the continued support after training is the best!

Andrew & Lyndsay are just wonderful people. They love your dog and they will answer your questions anytime. They love what they do and it shows. My dog Pumpkin is phenomenal in public ( not so much at home like most kids) but I am always complimented on how well behaved she is. I would not hesitate to use them, I waited 6 months to get it and it was worth the wait. Thank you so much!

If you love your dog I suggest going to another dog trainer. These people do not care about your dog.I wish I had never gone to them. They messed up my sweet golden retriever and then ignored me when I asked them for help.My dog’s training with priority k9 happened in 2018 and it took years for my dog to overcome her trauma from priority k9’s training.My girl was fairly trained beforehand. She never jumped on people and when she would approach people she would sit down and let them pet her. I had big dreams of my dog becoming a therapy dog. She was really friendly and outgoing, but she was also very gentle and kind.The veterinarian at Lesslie Animal Hospital recommended taking the puppy class that Priority K9 taught there. Priority K9 taught us to train our dogs with prong collars which I do believe work well for the more unruly dogs, but in retrospect was completely unnecessary and cruel for my dog as she was highly food motivated and listened to commands.I started noticing changes in my dog. She still would approach people, sit down, but then she’d growl at them. At first it was only one or two random people. But as she graduated the class she became much worse. She began doing her whole going up to the person, sitting down, and growling at anyone. She never snapped or bit anyone but it made me nervous.I scheduled an evaluation with Priority K9 and drove out to their training facility. Andy was shocked that this was the same dog from the puppy class was now a growling anxious mess. He suggested she needed more confidence and said he would call me back to schedule some agility course training. And then preceded to never call me back.After that I ended up going to two separate dog trainers both are certain that my dog developed her aggression from that prong collar. It took a long time for her to be comfortable around people again.

Wow, what a difference 3 weeks has been. My Harley boy had excitement issues and bad manners. When we picked him up yesterday, he was the same happy go lucky pup except now he actually listens to commands and does not pull while walking. He’s only 9 months old so continuous training by us and follow ups with Priory will be needed to keep him conditioned. The trainers are so amazing! My husband and I both felt they are our kindred spirits!Thank you so much Andy & Lyndsay for all that you do and for taking such great care of our boy. We are so grateful and look forward to seeing Harley exceed even more 💙💙💙Mandi & Matt Shuler

Andy, Lyndsay and Jared are awesome. Highly recommend board and train option. We hadn't put in the time and didn't really understand how to train our dog. They were able to help us "reset" and get back on a much better path. They were very comfortable working with a large, powerful breed (which can sometimes be hard to find).

3 week board and train was worth EVERY penny!So reasonably priced for the quality of care & training our puppy received!I can not say enough good things about our experience!

Andy and his team did a great job with my 7 1/2 month old doberman. I am happy to say she is a joy to walk with and I can actually walk her now with my min pin and that was just one of her problems. She has come along way and I can't thank Andy and his team at Priory K9 enough.
